One day Stinkbug was on the road.[1] Coyote saw
him and wanted to eat him, but Stinkbug, who was the smarter one,
pretended that he was hearing something below the surface of the
ground.[2] Coyote was puzzled by this, and asked him what he heard.
Stinkbug fooled Coyote by telling him that those who lived
underground said that they were going to kill every animal that
defecated on the road. Coyote fled when he heard this and Stinkbug
ran into a hole to hide.

[Note 1] The stinkbug
(Eleodes spp.) is a large, black, flightless beetle that
travels with its head down and its abdominal end raised. It may
release a foul-smelling substance when disturbed.
